42 chars seems nice, though this doesn't have to be the final select screen.
Kind of weird that there are no sound 5 ninja at all.
Also a shame that they didn't include the pre-timeskip characters.
But yeah if there are only 3 left....shodai, nidaime and sandaime?
-----------------
I'm glad they didn't focus too much on the pre-time skip characters. So....3 more? Will we see Tobi?

I haven't been following the anime, so I'm not sure on this. But does that mean the anime followers won't know Killer Bee or Minato?

They don't have to focus on anything, the characters are already made, you could say they actually wasted time by taking them out.
They coud've just left them in instead, like what they did with accel and accel 2.
-----------------
But as support characters previously (sound 5 specifically), they lacked a complete move set, finishing moves, voices, etc. It'd take effort to complete them, although the character models are there already.
As for the older generation characters, I think they just wanted to move on.... so that there's a reason to get the original game.

Im dissapointed at the lack of Sound 5, Haku and Zabuza. I don't really care about younger version of the characters... but I wanted those 8.
Does this mean you can chose ANY of the pain as main? or the others will only be seen through support and/or jutsus? Also... which Summon Pain will appear? The female? Or the dude?
Tobi needs to be there... Lars should be a guest hidden character, not part of the rooster...
Dude... LET IT GO! You already have like 10+ character with plenty of bouncing tittays in this game, what do you care how the Summoning pain looks like?
And no Tobi doesn't need to be there, Madara does. The Tobi in the ultimate series wasn't fun to play with at all >_>
Madara doesn't need to be there, simply because the anime isn't that far, so stop even hoping for it.
And once again, only Yahiko is playable, the other pein are part of his move list.
I'm thinking both the female and the dude summoners will be available, but as a different "costume" for Pein.
Like how you can choose Genin/Jounin sandnin and genin/chuunin Shikamaru in UNS.
Hinata looks like she will be even more awesome then she already is in UNS, twin lion fists looked great.

Hinata needs to get rid of that damn coat
